Bojinia

Chapter 11

After a long day, Rina and I walked home. Rina lives two streets away from me so it's easy to meet.

It wasn't too dark but walking home alone makes Jenna on edge but I'll take care of that later.

On my way I heard footsteps behind me, then someone was walking beside me close enough to be mistaken for a companion of mine not two strangers walking down the same street.

I took a step aside but he did the same, so I started running but he grabbed my hand to stop me and said "Do not, run or scream, I am not here to hurt you" just then I looked at his face but surprising myself I relaxed a little, he was the guy from the library, the one who saved me from falling on my face. He let go of me probably when he noticed I'm not going to run

"Follow me" he said in a low cold voice.

"No! who are you?" I shouted

"keep your voice down, it's annoying" he said, how dare he?! i thought angrily

I froze in my footsteps,i was not going to follow some guy i don't know, he continued as if he didn't notice the he turned to me "Come on we don't have time" he scolded me

"I. Am. Not.Going.Anywhere" I hissed between gritted teeth.

He smirked, and shrugged then he came probably thinking he could force me to walk but he stopped and suddenly his face turned a very serious expression as he said "Control your emotions, or what happened to the poor tree behind your school might happen again" he paused as I let things sink in my mind and my face turned into an expression of pure shock, but he completed

"Now, call home and tell your mother that you're staying with Rina tonight" I cut him off saying "how do you no these thing who are you? how do you know Rina?" I cried and took a step backward he didn't reply so I walked away furiously only to stop when he said "Look".

I turned around and he nodded probably to himself. He turned around and pulled his slightly long reddish brown hair up, leaving his bare neck exposed.

I gasped at the sight in-front of me, the two burning intersecting circles with the arrow holding them, were clear on his fair skin. I couldn't believe myself, for this is not tattoo but it's the same mark I bear on my neck, I felt like I need someone to slap my face or something. Maybe he has answers for me. Maybe he's the only one who knows who I am, what I am.

He turned around to look straight into my eyes, and he spoke "Now, please trust me and do as I say. I promise I will explain"

His stone cold face softened a little as I stuttered saying "O- Ok "

I called Jenna and told her I will be late and that I might stay out with Rina, I didn't want to lie to her.

From what I've seen I think I can trust this guy, we walked he was fast and I was having a little trouble keeping pace with him.

"So, Mr. Nameless guy, what do I call you?" I asked actually eager to know his name, he kept silent for a bit as if debating whether to answer me or ignore me.

"You can call me zander" he spoke finaly looking at his watch "try walking faster, we are almost there."

Zande! it's a beautiful name, and it surely fits him, i thought. but i can't help but feel slightly bothered by his presence.

"Where?" I asked.

"Here." He pointed to a big beautiful house it was far away from the town, it looks old but well built.

"mmm," I mumbled as he fetched a key and opened the door

"Where are we?" I asked

"home" he replied.
